How to speed up hair growth at home

Long hair is a classic of all times and peoples. Many writers have described the beauty of women's hair:

«Olesya is a tall girl of twenty-five years old, with beautiful long hair of the color of a crow's wing, which gives special tenderness to her white face ... " An excerpt from the story of A. Kuprin - "Olesya".

To date, they have not yet come up with a means with which to smear hair in the evening, and Rapunzel will wake up in the morning and go decorate the world with her beauty.

The structure of hair (curly, straight), their density, thickness begin to form and develop in the womb. Therefore, if you have fine hair, it will not get thick, if you have curly hair, it will not be perfectly straight. But, it is quite possible to try to accelerate their growth - as much as possible, to the extent laid down by nature.

If you want to accelerate hair growth, then you need to work in three areas:

1. Nourish your hair from the inside out. Lead a healthy lifestyle.

2. Reinforced, high-quality hair care.

3. Connect external means to stimulate hair growth (masks, tonics, tinctures ...).

And now for each direction more specifically. But, before that, I want to say that: “Without labor, you can't even get a fish out of the pond,” that is, you need to work on this: constantly, systematically and comprehensively.

1. Nourish hair from the inside for fast hair growth

Few people can lead a healthy lifestyle today (family, work, home ...), there is not much time left for themselves, but these simple habits will help not only to make your hair beautiful and healthy, but also to maintain the health of the whole organism:

1. Give up bad habits (smoking, alcohol) that slow down the metabolism.

2. Balancing your diet, this does not mean that you need to give up your favorite foods, just try, in addition to your favorite dishes, to eat every day some other vegetables and fruits, especially seasonal ones, and also do not forget about different cereals and nuts in your diet, drink 1 , 5-2 liters of clean water per day (in small portions).

3. Drink a complex of vitamins for hair, especially while you are doing a course of masks to accelerate hair growth. Vitamin C improves blood circulation in the scalp, strengthens and stimulates hair growth. Vitamin E also enhances blood circulation in the scalp, saturates the scalp with oxygen.

4. Make homemade hair vitamins, which you can read about in the article: Hair vitamins (according to the prescription of a trichologist).

5. Go in for sports, at least morning exercises, which will accelerate metabolic processes and improve blood flow throughout the body and most importantly to the scalp, which will nourish our hair with all the necessary nutrients, because all the building material for our hair comes from blood.

6. Take a contrast shower and set aside at least 8 hours for sleep.

7. Psychological condition - stress, has a very negative effect on the condition of the hair, it can even cause hair loss. When we experience severe stress, the "involuntary muscle" spasms (the muscle connects the follicle to the scalp), which, as it were, compresses the hair follicle and then the hair root is damaged and the hair begins to fall out. Moreover, the “squeezed follicle” becomes thin, emaciated and cannot produce healthy, strong hair, as a result, the hair grows weak, thin, dull, breaks heavily and it is impossible to grow long. The more stress you experience, the slower your hair grows.

2. Reinforced, high-quality hair care

The most important thing is not only to speed up hair growth, but also to focus on maintaining hair length!

1. Regularly care for and clean your hair, sebum, dust, dirt, styling products accumulate on the roots of the hair and scalp, as a result of which the pores are clogged and the hair cannot breathe, which leads not only to slower hair growth and hair loss.

2. Do not wash your hair with too hot water. The water should be at a comfortable temperature, at the end you can rinse with cool water to smooth the scales.

3. When choosing a shampoo, pay attention to what type of hair it is intended for and what you want to achieve in the end result: volume, smoothness, fluffiness, shine ... (I would recommend having several shampoos, one for frequent use and one for deep cleansing of the hair, in more detail, how choose a shampoo depending on the type of hair, you can see the linkmyhair.bigbadmole.com/en/uxod-za-volosami/kak-podobrat-shampun-dlya-normalnyx-suxix-i-zhirnyx-volos

4. Do not wash all your hair with shampoo, just soap the roots, and when you wash off the shampoo from your head, it will flow through your hair and rinse the length of your hair.

5. use conditioners, conditioners and hair masks after each hair wash.

6. Blot washed hair gently with a towel - do not rub or curl it.

7. Do not comb wet hair, but slightly damp and special combs. It is better to comb your hair well in front of the head wash, then after washing it will not be so tangled.

8. Leave-in products: oils, serums, creams, fluids, crystals - this is a must-have care step if you are growing your hair.

9. Try to minimize the use of a hair dryer, ironing, curling iron, but if it doesn't work, then use good thermal protection.

10. Do not use thin elastic bands and metal hairpins, they strongly pull hair and they can break off.

11. Trim split ends regularly.

3. Means for fast hair growth

Basically, hair growth can be accelerated with the help of products that irritate the scalp and cause blood flow, which nourishes the hair roots with all the necessary substances for the growth, health and beauty of hair. When all the necessary nutrients are supplied to the hair, the hair begins to grow faster.

1. Scalp massage, which helps to stimulate blood circulation and is one of the main factors for accelerating hair growth (watch the video at the end of the article).

2. Antistress goosebump massage, which relieves headaches, relaxes, improves hair growth.

3. Massage with the Darsonval apparatus - strengthens and stimulates hair growth at home. You can read more about the effectiveness of using the device in this article. Darsonval for hair loss

4. Aroma combing hair. A pleasant procedure and at the same time a massage of the scalp, drop a few drops of essential oil on the comb and comb the hair for 5 to 10 minutes.

5. Salt peeling of the scalpwhich not only deeply cleanses clogged pores and scalp, but also stimulates hair growth and activates dormant follicles.

6. Various homemade masks that accelerate hair growth:

• Oil masks
• Mustard masks
• Masks with tincture of red pepper (capsicum)
• Cognac and honey masks
• Cinnamon masks
• Ginger masks

Details about these masks, their properties, composition and how to do it right can be found in the article Homemade masks for fast hair growth

7. Nicotinic acid (vitamin B3, vitamin PP) for hair growth in ampoules.

Nicotinic acid dilates blood vessels and thereby enhances the nutrition of the hair follicles. Before starting a niacin-free treatment, you need to stock up on a silicone-free shampoo, because the silicones not only envelop the hair itself, but also remain on the scalp, which will prevent niacin from absorbing into the scalp.

The course of nicotinic acid lasts one month, it must be rubbed into the scalp daily on clean hair, because dust, dirt, sebum and styling products also prevent the penetration of nicotinic acid.

For one procedure, one ampoule is enough after application, the skin may turn red and you may feel a burning sensation, this is quite normal, which means that nicotinic acid works, you also do not need to wash it off, nicotinic acid does not grease the hair.

But, nicotinic acid is a medical drug, and it has contraindications, if high blood pressure, it is better not to use it. If after the procedure a headache, itching of the scalp or a rash appears, this means that the drug is not suitable for you or individual intolerance, also use nicotinic acid carefully if you have sensitive scalp.

Hair growth tinctures

Nettle infusion: pour a tablespoon of dry nettle leaves with a glass of boiling water, leave for one hour in a dark place, then strain and apply the infusion to the scalp, do not rinse (except for accelerating hair growth, this infusion is great for hair loss).

Burdock root infusion: two tablespoons of burdock root, pour 0.5 l. water, cook for 10 minutes on low heat. Wash your hair with this broth 2-3 times a week. Stimulates hair growth, awakens dormant hair follicles, reduces hair loss.

Hop cone tincture: pour one glass of hop cones with one glass of vodka, leave for 2 weeks in a dark, warm place. Massage into the hair roots every day for a month.
